Coggeshall Primary School

Location: Stoneham Street, Coggeshall, Essex

Date: 1996

Award: The Braintree Environmental Heritage Award, 1997

Having stood empty for many years, this small victorian village
school was converted in 1997 into 7 houses including the
restoration of the much admired former headmaster's house with its
unusual and distincive gingerbread tiled roof. With courtyard
gardens to the front of each house, a lot of care was taken in the
landscaping to provide private space as well as a high-quality
public domain.
